I have a 74 181 that a PO changed all for wheels to a 4 lug. Can anyone tell me what their reasoning may have been? I don’t know enough about the 181 yet to see how that would be any kind of advantage. Thanks.

There may be several reasons.

More wheel options for the 4 lug

Disk brake conversion

Front suspension switched to a Beetle beam

Ah Thanks! Well, its not a disc conversion. I'll just go with wheel choice and /or Beetle axle beam.
